The Friday Collapse virtual monthly reading for July will feature poets Cord Moreski, Chad Frame, and Cleveland Wall on July 30, 6:30 PST and 9:30 EST. We have an event page on Facebook, Collapse Press. This is a virtual event hosted on the zoom platform with a livestream on Facebook. Hosted by E. Lynn Alexander and Paul Corman Roberts, Collapse Press. Cord Moreski is a poet from the Jersey Shore.

His work has been featured in As It Ought To Be Magazine, Eunoia Magazine, In Between Hangovers, Indigent A La Carte, Philosophical Idiot, Rusty Truck Press, Rye Whiskey Review, The Piker Press, and Silver Birch Press. When he is not writing, Cord waits tables and teaches middle school children that poetry is awesome. Cleveland Wall is a poet, performer, and teaching artist in Bethlehem, PA. She was born in Philadelphia and grew up in the San Francisco Bay Area. Cleveland performs with interactive poetry group No River Twice and with poetry/guitar duo The Starry Eyes. Current obsessions include dream life, embodied poetics, ephemeral art, and the power of persistent, incremental change.
